      • venkat23, on 10/26/2007, -0/+1check man ubuntu studio already is there
  • venkat23, on 10/26/2007, -4/+1nice copy from above link shame on you man
  • estaticd, on 10/26/2007, -1/+3I compiled this list from three separate sources, and that was not one of them.
  • tinker123, on 10/26/2007, -1/+1Most of these distros are not different enough for me to risk the potential hassle of losing support by not having vanilla Ubuntu.

    Most of the features are things I can do for myself with vanilla Ubuntu. Since I don't want that much and I can usually avoid altering the sources.list ( death in Ubuntu ) I am just fine.

    While having a KDE based Ubuntu would be nice I've gotten used to gnome and have installed the one or two kde apps I miss. Luckily, most of my favorite apps are cross platform and non-desktop specific.

    Every since I was in college and discovered the value of cross platform apps with gnu emacs I've aimed for that. You can take your investment in learning an app with you
